The pamphlet Junkyard Primer has a nice photo of all the different
crossmember brackets.

Hi Bob,
The '66 transmission bracket has 4 bolts holding it to the trans case
whereas the '65 trans bracket had 3. 1 of the 3 was bigger than the other 2.
The big (horseshoe) crossmember will interchange and does not need to be
changed as part of this swap. You'll have to adjust the shifter length. This
is what I remember.
